No Loyalty
July 2, 2019

I have been with Metro PCS since they entered the market with bad reception and poor quality phones but hung in there while their company grew. I went into a store and was completely disappointed in the service and the pricing was only good if you were a new customer. There was no discount for loyal customers in fact there was a price increase. As a company you should be ashamed that customers like myself that helped you become what you are today get treated with no favoritism. I am in the retail business as well and a manager I make sure to thank every customer for the loyalty and reward them with discounts and other items we offer. I went in and bought a phone and they looked at my account and saw the loyalty and proceeded with price gouging and telling me lies in able to charge a higher price for accessories. I am not proud of being with company that is not loyal to their customers and will be searching to switch to a company that is.

Worst cellphone company
November 20, 2021

My sister recommended metro, but sense then I have determined it to be the worst cell phone company ever. I have purchased phones from them that are poor quality. I have people calling me and can't reach, or goes straight to voicemail. The service is terrible. The cell phones they sell are expensive and poor quality. I went to a distribution store to replace phone, never got a phone call. Took a trip twice to Tampa and got no results, only got sold another poor quality phone. Plus you can't call the store directly, the number directs you to a call center You would think after so many about a phone brand that they would stop selling that brand. I have also concluded that metro is a fraudulent company.

Horrible
August 1, 2021

Extremely slow to nonexistent internet service, 1-2 bars at most, impossible to connect most of time, often no internet service at all, inferior phones. Very poor customer service. No service on phone either. Waste of $40/month for inadequate service.

I couldn't be happier with Darian's service. I needed a full factory reset. With no password it seemed impossible. He tried so many different ways, and they were all dead ends. He spent a lot of time trying and he finally got the reset. He was patient with the situation. He spoke in terms that I could understand. He was very good at social distancing. I wish I could give him a 6th stars.

I made a visit to the MetroPCS on 1334 E Apache Blvd Tempe Az *******. Magali helped me with my decision on which phone to get. And helped me activate a phone for my daughter. She did a good job keeping a good conversation going while she was working on my phone. Great customer service Magali thank you so much.

Pay 56 a month for unlimited data. Only to have internet sometimes. And lucky to make a phone call. When i call customer service there is no help. Last month im waisting my money switching phone carries. If your looking for a phone carrier and want unlimited data, dont go with metro their customer service is non existent.

Suxs
November 2, 2022

I got a phone on 10 21 22 it stopped working last night. I went this morning to swap it out they said they could not do that they would get me a replacement phone it should be here in 3 to 5 days. They would not even swap it out and I have only had this phone for 12 days... this is the worst i have dealt with and i have worked retail all my life and never heard of such... lets just say i am beyond MAD! I also have my business phones with them and now that account will be gone soon... hope this helps someone DO NOT USE METROPC!

Bait and switched
December 3, 2022

I recently requested for unlimited internet at my home. One week later my internet shutoff. It turned out unlimited internet is not available In my area. They accepted my return with the employee stating I should have never been setup with services as unlimited internet is not available at my residence. They gave me back 40 percent of my total payment stating that I used there services so I can get the rest back. What a scam.

The worst, no stars!
April 22, 2023

Bad service, phones crash, service crashes, bad customer service, if you try to port to another carrier expect a circus. Held my 15 year number hostage for 4 days. Gave me a huge run around just to retrieve MY number. Wouldn't allow access to my account with correct account number and pin and refused to process my port over due to their crappy no one has ever heard of protocols. Glad I switch carriers.

Thanks
July 12, 2020

I am a retired nurse and not cell phone number literate. I had a tiny figure of a man on the corner of my screen. After trying for hours I went into the metro store where MASIH ABDULLAH works. Within 5 minutes he fixed my phone and was friendly, patient and kind. I just want to thank him again for treating a "old lady" wonderfully!

Phone upgrade
March 9, 2023

Has 2 phones with metro and has been pay for insurance for these phones only to go in to get told that one of my plans have to be upgraded in order for me to get the upgrade price for a phone, but when I got these two lines I was told different. Was also told I had insurance on my phones and now insurance only on one. Metro will always try and find a way to get over on people. I wouldn't recommend anyone to them better go straight to t-mobile or go to Walmart better service and explanation on why you paying for all this different stuff

I have been with MetroPCS for about 5-6 years now and I hate that we have to pay full price anytime we want a new phone. I have my bill on auto pay for me and my family so we are loyal customers! I don't understand why Metro can't cut their previous customers a break on getttnew phones. Why do we gotta pay full price? Just not fair! I'm not asking for a free phone just like a bit of a break! If a phone is regularly $200 give it to your loyal customers for like $150! Not fair at all! This is what might make me leave metro to go get a contract plan! Thanks so much!

2 months in the south west with metro pcs hot spot 100GB plan and a metro phone plan was a big waste of money we had little or no coverage on all the ma pa networks they use! Couldn't even watch netfix we used ookla speed test on all our devices to verify our conclusion If you stay in major cities it's good most of the time. World not recommend for traveling.
